Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Milkshake

If you’ve been a reader for awhile then you know that Fall is my very favorite season! For the past three years I’ve always done a blog about Fall of some sort.

I started decorating for fall at the end of August because to me, Fall begins when school starts after a long summer vacation.

I haven’t had a Pumpkin Spice Latte or Frappuccino yet this year but mostly because this year, things are a little different. 

I have officially joined a workout facility and I am thoroughly enjoying myself! I have found a place where I feel encouraged and motivated and my coaches are pretty darn amazing in my eyes! I go to class at 7:30AM and that’s how I start my Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. Thursday’s I work out at home with either a video or whatever the WOD is for the gym. Friday, Saturday and Sunday, I’m really active and on my feet all day. 

All that to say, I’m preparing for a 21 day challenge and that means no refined sugar in my diet. I still have 6 days til the challenge begins but food-wise, I’ve started already.

I was craving some Pumpkin last night so I decided to make a Pumpkin Shake. It really did hit the spot! Hope you get to try it soon!

  1. Yum! I need to try! I watch “The Kitchen” from food network and they did a really neat one that uses dates to be a natural sweetener. I wonder if that would work here?
